Community Legal Services of Mid-Florida, Inc. (CLSMF) is a non-profit organization that offers free legal help to the most vulnerable people in Central Florida. Their goal is to assist these individuals in protecting their families, health, and jobs. They provide services like housing, family law, consumer rights, employment, and public benefits.
In Central Florida, almost one million people can get help from CLSMF. Every year, their team of lawyers, paralegals, and advocates gives free legal aid to over 20,000 people in the region. They focus on helping those with low incomes with urgent, non-criminal legal issues that matter in their daily lives. This includes things like stopping seniors from being unfairly kicked out of their homes, ensuring the safety of women and children facing violence at home, and helping veterans get the financial benefits they've earned and depend on.
CLSMF also helps with work-related legal issues, like workplace rights and discrimination cases. They also assist people in understanding and getting the public benefits they deserve.
Working with volunteer lawyers, CLSMF reaches more people who need legal help. They also educate the community by providing information and resources to help people understand their legal rights and what they need to do. Their website has materials and knowledge to help individuals understand their legal rights and choices.
